    Good point, I haven't really handled the grey pants. I basically just passed over the grey pants at A if I saw them, probably just thinking, hmm...nice grey pants, holy S%*T thats expensive, wow, ok, moving on....w
    which surely misses the subtlety of them. i haven't seen the grey leather shirt either- but it's true the boots are real nice too, though I'm not sure I prefer them to the best of old carpe, guidi, or even first season of augusta.

        From what I've seen on P and Maldoror, the 5 pocket pants are ballertastic. The price on them is what makes me balk unfortunately. Price aside, Amadei does deliver some very very well made and precision cut pieces. He's expanding super fast though. I hope that doesn't mean a downturn in product quality and design quality.

        Amadei is definitely a very creative patternmaker whereas Carol is all about insane precision. Amadei's pieces are a little "softer" which lends to a bit of leeway in silhouette and construction. Upon seeing/handling MA+ pieces though, you can see that they're well thought out; minimizing seams while maximizing the effect.

        Snafu, there's no MA+ fencing ;) just the CCP version which should be a HG for anyone and everyone. No other "version" of the fencing comes close to the construction.

            You'll have to travel to multiple stores to compare them side to side though

                my boy arthur (fashion world) hooked it up.

                positively the most retardedly excessive birthday present to myself in the history of my life. thank you dear departed babi (r.i.p.)

                I sent you a euphoric pm upon receiving the prince of pants™ a while back. maybe you never got it? I just assumed you ignored it.

                either way: unparalleled purity of design, closer to perfection than any other piece of clothing I've yet encountered. they belong in a design museum, but they'll have to settle for disguising my chicken legs.

                      i read Amadei's making some limited editions (aren't all his pieces pretty limited?) for charity for upcoming Christmas season. along with Doma, Brato, and Viridi-Anne, and others. just thought it was pretty interesting.
